The building was enlarged, probably in 1318 when three altars were dedicated by Walter de Stapledon, Bishop of Exeter. To the nave, chancel and tower were added north and south aisles in the Perpendicular style were added later to transform a cruciform church into one of rectangular shape. These aisles were rebuilt in about 1670, but retain mural monuments of earlier date. The church has a lead-covered broach spire, said to be the best of its kind in England.

'Achitecturally the most remarkable feature is the tower, placed asymmetrically on the south not far from the east end, in a transeptal position. It seems to date from the c13 and is crowned by a lead-covered broach spire of the second half of the c17, with the bell-openings curiously placed between the broaches and covered by pediments, and bells hanging exposed higher up under a pediment-like little roof' PEVSNER.
